| - This place is an indoor flea market. Well, a very nice and neat indoor flea market. The big difference is majority of the goods are brand new. If you are looking for the Gap or Starbucks, this is not it.
This is one of our stops in our Canadian weekend. The mister's brother told us to visit here. At the time, I was like okay and he said the word "mall", as this shopaholic loves a mall. Once I was stepped inside, I was like, Am I still in Canada? How come I don't hear "Eh", and everyone here is Asian?! Little did I know that Pacific Mall means is the mall to buy anything that's asian, sold by asians, cooked by asians, etc. I felt that I have been transplanted to Hong Kong.
Don't get me wrong, me loves anything asian but I guess I was expecting a Gap or Starbucks mall. I did not have those happy shopaholic moments. I did shop my heart out and went browsing in the clothing shops. The clothing sold here were okay quality. I could not find anything I liked, if you are a size 0 or a skeleton this is the place for you. I was in one stall, deciding for the longest time to get a new phone case and they were really cheap, but in the end, I concluded that I don't need a new phone case.
There are places that are like Pacific Mall back home, but I have to say Pacific Mall beats them all. For my friends back in Queens, this place blows Flushing Mall out of the water in terms of atmosphere and variety of goods sold. I feel the ones who would appreciate this place would be non-asians. If you don't want Starbucks, there is bubble teas everywhere!
